Handi Life Sport was established when a sudden need for Boccia Balls arose

HANDI LIFE SPORT MAKES SPORT FOR ALL POSSIBLE

In the middle of the 1980’s, a small group of Scandinavian athletes with disabilities started playing indoor boccia. Their balls were homemade and of poor quality, and they needed a useable and more reliable ball to play this new, popular sport. Jens and Kirsten Bromann took on the challenge and begun developing a boccia ball.

Today, 30 years later, Handi Life Sport offers a wide selection of equipment for sports, leisure and rehabilitation.

HOW TO PLAY - SIMPLE BOCCIA RULES


PREPARATION A set of boccia consists of six red and six blue boccia balls, as well as a white jack ball. Each ball has a circumference of 9.8 inches and weighs approximately 9.7 oz. Two teams play against each other. One plays against one, two against two or three against three. If desired, you can add the rule that all players have to sit down while shooting. Otherwise, you can let the players decide themselves whether they want to play sitting or standing. The dimensions of an official boccia court is 6.6 x 10.9 Yards, but a 3.3 x 5.5 court can work as well ? simply use the space available! You can choose to mark the starting line or the entire court with tape. One team plays with the red balls, the other plays with the blue balls. The players are sitting or standing next to each other facing the starting line.	THE GAME BEGINS Team Red beings by throwing the white jack ball onto the court. Then, Team Red throws a red ball, trying to place it as close to the jack as possible. Then, Team Blue throws one or more balls, attempting to place one of their balls closer to the jack ball than the red. When a blue ball is closest to the jack ball, or when Team Blue is out of balls, the turn reverts to Team Red. If the jack is pushed out of court, it is reinserted into the middle of the court. If desired, you can mark the middle with a cross. The game then continues. When all balls have been thrown, the round is over.	COUNTING POINTS The team whose ball is closest to the jack has won. 1 point is given for each ball closer to the jack than the opponent’s closest ball. Minimum points per round is 1, maximum points is 6. If there is a tie ? e.g. if both a red and a blue ball is touching the jack ? both teams are given 1 point. In the next round, Team Blue starts the game by throwing the jack onto the court. A boccia match consists of four rounds (called ends in the official rules).
